Hassock Wood production floor and Schubox drying system
Made by people. Perfected by technology.

Inside our London fire-door factory.

Every project passes through the hands of experienced carpenters, machinists, sprayers and quality inspectors—combining practical joinery skill with controlled CNC production and advanced coating technology.

From workshop to project

How we build your fire doors.

Technology gives us accuracy, but our people make the difference. Each door is made through a controlled sequence, with skilled craftspeople responsible for preparation, finishing and inspection throughout.

STEP 01

Schedule review

Our team reviews the door schedule, specification, ratings, dimensions, glazing and approved ironmongery before production begins.

STEP 02

Material preparation

Door leaves, frames, linings and components are selected and prepared for the specified configuration and finish.

STEP 03

Precision machining

Controlled CAD data and our five-axis CNC centre provide repeatable preparation for hinges, locks, closers and approved apertures.

STEP 04

Skilled bench work

Our carpenters complete hands-on assembly, fitting and detail work—checking every component rather than relying on automation alone.

STEP 05

Spray, cure and finish

Coatings are professionally spray applied for even coverage, then cured in our Schubox® catalytic infrared drying system.

STEP 06

Final inspection

Finished work is visually and dimensionally checked against the project requirements before careful preparation for dispatch.

The people behind every door

Real craftsmanship, supported by modern production.

Fire-door manufacture is not simply a machine process. It takes trained eyes, steady hands and people who understand how every detail contributes to the finished doorset. Our workshop team brings together traditional carpentry, digital machining and professional spray finishing under one roof.

Advanced controlled drying

Why our Schubox® system makes a difference.

The Schubox® Catalytic Infrared Drying System cures coatings from within the paint film, rather than relying only on conventional hot air. This supports a faster, more even curing process and helps us produce smooth, hard and consistent factory finishes.

Its lower-temperature operation is particularly well suited to MDF and temperature-sensitive materials, helping reduce the risk of fibre raising, warping, swelling or movement while coatings cure.

Faster, controlled curing
Shorter drying cycles support efficient project turnaround.
Consistent colour and sheen
Even curing supports repeatable finish quality across a schedule.
Made for modern coatings
Well suited to modern water-based systems and professional spray application.
MDF-friendly temperatures
Reduced heat exposure helps protect dimensionally sensitive components.
Fire-rated decorative coatings

ADLER Pyrolan Expand: protection without losing the finish.

For suitable projects requiring enhanced reaction-to-fire performance, we use the water-based ADLER Pyrolan Expand intumescent coating system for wood and wood-based materials.

When exposed to extreme heat, the coating expands to form an insulating protective layer, helping slow flame spread and reduce smoke development. Professional spray application allows timber, MDF panels, architectural features and bespoke joinery to retain a considered decorative appearance.

Wide choice of colours and finishes
Consistent surface coverage
Specified to the applicable tested system

Fire performance depends on the complete tested specification, including substrate, preparation, application rate and topcoat. Project requirements should be confirmed before manufacture.
